I recently broke the screen to my first gen moto x. Does anyone have any advice on how to approach the solution, with the minimal cost possible? As I do not have any insurance for the phone, would buying the latest Moto E be the best option?

What are the best IEMs under $70? They are not for me, but they would be used for running and everyday use, so they must also be durable? Also, would a step up in price be worth it to a person who may not be able to tell differences in audio very well?

So I have a moto x 2013 from Verizon,and I am getting only 3 hours of screen on time without the use ofgraphics intensive applications and the standby life is abysmal(it is dropping at least 5 percent every hour). Any suggestions of what I can do to improve it?

So I have $12 left in my steam wallet and want to spend it wisely on a steam square enix sale item. I currently have the just cause collection and the new tomb raider. Any suggestions? What is your favorite game from them?

The case is an NZXT S340, so that shouldnt be a problem. Also, I currently have not replaced the thermal paste, and am using a stock cooler. Using F@H to load CPU. I am not overclocking my cpu , however if i can get my temps down I could use some advice on how to do it.

So today I found out that my CPU, an i7 860, is running at about 80 degrees C on full load, while its recommended temperature is around 72C. Should I invest in watercooling or just apply some thermal paste. I am planning on using applications such as Folding@Home frequently as well as gaming.

Thanks for the advice. I didn't know if the pcie to USB 3.0 cards were a viable solution or not lol -
New CPU worth it?
pcgamerandaudiophile replied to pcgamerandaudiophile's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Mostly its inly because my computer case doesnt support usb 3, the onboard audio, and i was worried about possible frame loss. Should i just get a newer mobo that supports my chip? -

New CPU worth it?

amd or intel i dont really care as long as it provides a reasable and somewhat futureproof bang for the buck performance upgrade. -

Amazon Case Recommendations for Under $100
pcgamerandaudiophile replied to Dredge's topic in Power Supplies
The s340 is a great case for a first time builder with plenty of cable organization and room for components, and it is a great looker in my opinion. -
I currently have an i7 860 paired with a new r9 270. Is it worth the upgrade to an newer one, and if so what are the benefits to it and how much performance gain would i be looking at? My full system specs are on my profile page.
